Regional Geographic Information Systems (ReGIS)

ReGIS was established by a Shelby County Commission resolution in 2004 to enable efficient collection, storage and collaborative use of geospatial information, facilitate technical communication between other government and private concerns in the Mid-South, establish GIS data standards, policies and protocols and identify funding sources that could be used to share the cost of data development and maintenance.

Mission Statement​The mission of the ReGIS is to develop an enterprise geographic information system that will assist and promote a shared, centralized, resource for decision makers and the general public.

In pursuing its mission, ReGIS strives to:

Provide near-real-time technical and mapping support to Shelby County govern​mental agencies.

Assist departments and other partners to reengineer existing workflow and create a more efficient and effective operating environment.

Be compatible with existing GIS systems within the region.

Vision Statement

GIS will be an easy-to-use decision-making tool available to all SCG staff enabling access to data and information, promoting innovative solutions, and improving customer service to residents.
